ClarkCountyToday.com was born out of a simple but important idea: to provide you with the news that matters, where it matters.
Clark County has grown far beyond being known as Portland’s northern neighbor. With a population of over 450,000, we are a dynamic community made up of vibrant cities, neighborhoods, and unique stories. From the Heights to Felida and everywhere in between, residents are connected by a shared desire to stay informed on what’s happening down the street, across the county, and even beyond our borders.

That’s where ClarkCountyToday.com comes in. Founded by U.S. Digital CEO David Madore, we’re here to meet the increasing demand for reliable, relevant news—not just about Clark County but about the broader issues that impact our daily lives. We want to share the stories that connect us all, whether it’s local happenings, regional developments, or larger events that resonate close to home.
Our award-winning team, led by editor Ken Vance, brings decades of experience to the table. We’re passionate about telling stories that matter to you. From articles and photos to engaging video content, we aim to capture the heart of what’s important to our readers.
Above all, we’re dedicated to providing news that serves the people of Clark County and beyond. Our stories reflect the community we live in—its values, its challenges, and its triumphs. Whether it’s local issues, state developments, or topics that reach even further, our goal is to inform and empower you.
We value open dialogue and encourage a healthy exchange of perspectives. That’s why we clearly label opinion pieces and provide space for different voices to be heard.
“As the world changes, one thing remains constant: people’s desire for community news,” says Ken Vance. “ClarkCountyToday.com is here to meet that need, offering timely stories that keep you informed on the issues that matter most—both locally and beyond.” A careful overview on modafinil online discusses how sleep quality influences acne and aging.
